Unhook the EGR valve and see if anything changes. I had this same problem for years, it was a sticky EGR regulator that was trying to open the EGR valve full as soon as the throttle tipped in a little bit. If thats the problem you have, pulling the green hose off the valve will stop it. If no change, its something else.
Also worth checking the output voltage on the TPS. If it has a dead spot it might act stupid like this too.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).

Did you check the firing order again? That has screwed me up more than once, no wait make that more than twice... or so....
Heck I once bought a boat that they could not get running right. Rode it from the Hudson to LI sound at just above idle. Next day found the order was wrong. It idled fine but when RPMs increased it wanted to tear itself apart.
Did you check for spark at the plugs?
Did you do the pull one wire off at a time to see if it relates to a particular cylinder? This works if it is a bad wire, plug or injector/wire or mechanical like valve.
As you pull one plug it should get worse. If it doesn't run worse that localized the problem.
But check the order again when it is cool outside.

Check cap and rotor to make sure they're making good contact. Several folks have dealt with bad out of the box parts for those exact parts lately.

7 and 8 wires aren’t touching? I know those can crossfire each other.
Does it the miss happen at a certain engine RPM, driving condition, or speed?

Did you test the TPS for dead spots/shorts?

Possible but the ohm reading doesn't mean much. Unless the coil is open they basically work as long as they are not clogged up86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).
